- jonmrodriguez 15y agoI think that in the future, the following phenomena are likely to proliferate: - high-res satellite and airplane imaging of the globe - public geotagged photos, including compass bearing - Google Street View road images - public security cameras on public streets All of this data can be integrated using software like Microsoft's PhotoSynth, to stitch together a gigantic 3D model of the real globe. Then, people with Voxel Vision will be able to look around at streets and landmarks that are interesting but physically occluded.
